MATH 36 Mathematical Analysis I

Section A Lecture: WF 7:00 8:30 AM

2nd Semester 2011-2012

Recitation: TTh 7 - 8 AM

COURSE DESCRIPTION: The real number system; plane analytic geometry and conic
sections; limits and continuity; differentiation and integration of algebraic functions
COURSE GOALS:
1. To understand the deductive nature of mathematics via the axiomatic development of
the real number system;
2. To utilize properly the concept of limits in variety of situations and depth;
3. To demonstrate ease in differentiating and integrating functions; and
4. To apply differentiation and integration to solve real-world problems.

GRADING SYSTEM:
The prefinal standing will be computed as follows:
3 Long Exams
Exercises
Quizzes

60%
30%
10%

 If a student get a prefinal standing of 75% or better, then he or she is exempted from
taking the Final Exam. Otherwise, he or she is required to take the Final Exam.
If a student takes the Final Exam, then his or her final standing will be computed as
follows:
Prefinal Standing
70%

POLICIES:
1. The university policy on attendance will be implemented. A student whose absences in
both lecture and recitation exceed 18 hours may be given a grade of 5.0.
2. No makeup will be given for missed quizzes and exercises.
3. For excused absences, a duly signed excuse slip must be submitted within a week after
the students return.
4. If a student misses a long exam and presents a valid excuse slip, then he or she will be
given a makeup exam. Otherwise, he or she will automatically receive a score of 0 for
the missed exam.
